Coming November 2026

You've probably already decided who takes care of your pet if something happens to you.

Here's a gentle question: have you actually asked them?

We'll email you the moment Legacy of Love is available, and nothing else in the meantime.

Or start with a warm-up session, next one October 22

The gap this book is about

The assumption that goes untested until it's too late.

What it looks like

"I don't have a documented plan for who takes care of my pet if something happens to me. I'm assuming someone will, but I've never actually asked them."

How it feels

A quiet uncertainty. Hoping the arrangement holds, without ever actually knowing it does.

Why it matters

No one should have to leave their pet's fate to an assumption nobody ever tested.

Why this book exists

Written by someone who lived the gap firsthand.

"My mother assumed I'd just know what to do for her dog if something happened to her. We never actually talked about it. That gap is the whole reason this book exists."

That conversation sent Amy home to build the guide she wished she'd had: a written record of her parents' dog's daily routines, the commands he knew, the places he was walked, the people and habits that made him feel safe. It wasn't meant to become a book. It was meant to make sure that if something ever happened, she wouldn't be left guessing.

Amy Dellwo isn't a law firm or an institution. Her son lives just six miles away, and for years the two of them shared custody of her cat, Milo, splitting the week between two homes, an arrangement that felt solid until her son had a baby and Milo, upset by the change, started having accidents in the baby's car seat. Milo has lived with Amy full-time ever since. It was a real stress test of an arrangement neither of them had ever actually written down. What started as one realization has grown into something bigger: Legacy of Love is becoming a movement, bringing this kind of preparation into communities through workshops, real conversations, and readers working through the exact same question for their own animals.

The plan

Three steps. One conversation. A plan you can actually finish.

1

Get the book and workbook

The Complete Pet Legacy Kit pairs the narrative book with a structured workbook and Wizard tool access, so you have the why and the actual fields to fill in.

2

Fill in your plan

Work through it at your own pace, or bring it to a guided workshop session where the questions get answered as you go.

3

Confirm it, don't just assume it

Have the actual conversation with the person you're counting on. If you don't have one yet, the Legacy of Love community is a real place to build that.

A gentler first step

Not ready for the full plan? Start with a conversation.

A warm-up session to introduce the topic gently, no pressure, no workbook required yet. $10 per online session. The next one is Thursday, October 22, 6:30 to 7:30 pm Central. Warm-up sessions are typically held the third Thursday of the month, 6:30 to 7:30 pm Central. It's a good first step if you're not sure where to start, and you'll walk away with a completed one-page emergency card.

Nothing to buy beforehand

Prices shown are before sales tax. Sales tax applies to physical books and workbooks. Everything here is educational, not legal, financial, or veterinary advice.

What it feels like when it's done

You've had the actual conversation, not just the assumption. Your pet's plan is written down, confirmed with a real person or a real community, and ready for whoever needs it, whether it's a bad flu, a fall, a hospital stay, or the day none of us likes to think about.

What stays unresolved otherwise

The assumption stays untested. If something happens before that conversation does, whoever's left has to guess: what did she actually want, who did she actually mean, where's the vet, what's the medication schedule. A plan that only existed in your head doesn't transfer with you.

The pet plan that gets confirmed, not just assumed.
